Easy to Cook BBQ Turkey Chili

This is a great, easy, cheap chili recipe that takes very little preparation.

Ingredients:

1 can of kidney beans (16 ounces), rinsed and drained
1 can hot chili beans (15 1/2 ounces)
1 can turkey chili with beans (15 ounces)
1 can diced tomatoes, undrained (14 1/2 ounces)
1/3 cup of barbecue sauce

In a 3-qt. slow cooker, combine all of the ingredients. Cover and cook this on high for 4 hours are until heated through and flavors are blended. This will yield 4 to 6 servings.


Bell Pepper & Onion Ramen

My wife's favorite Ramen recipe, is simply chopping up onion and bell pepper, adding it to the bottom of the soup bowl, and after cooking the Ramen as directed on the package, she pours her Ramen soup on top of the peppers and onions. She will often add celery to this mix as well.

Great stuff!

Cheesy Ramen

Take your favorite shredded cheese and add to the bottom of your bowl you will eat out of. Combine with half of the ramen flavor packet, season to your taste. Mix this together.

Boil your ramen noodles normally, using the other half of the seasoning packet. Drain the water from your noodles and while still hot drop them into the prepared bowl. Mix this with the now melted cheese until uniform and enjoy!

One of my favorites.
